THE MUSIC or THE PAST.


Hardly ever that a body
Hears the old tunes any more;
But trampin' fiddler PLAYED 'em
T'other evonin' at the door.
An the music, as he playedit,
Kind o. seemed like ev'ry noto
Only kept the lump a-growin
That it started ID my threat.
An rs | sat a lis'enin'
10 them tunes l used TO know,
All the past riz up before mo
Like magic-lantery show.
Forty years or more was taken
From the tally-sheet o life
Forty years of work aud worry,
Disappointment, care aud strife.
An a voice that now is silent
Promised me in loyin' tones,
An hand that now is pulselcss
Lay contentod in my own.
While the faces that have vanished,
An the feet that now are still,
Was a-smilin' an a-dancin'
In that cabin on the hill
But the player stOpt playiu'
An the picture soon was gone,
AM l shouldered up the buIden
That ole Time keeps pilin' on.
Still, couldn't help but scatter
'Mong the dust O. all these years,
As kind o. goodbye Off7rin',
Just a few regretful tears.

Coffee.

The Hollandrrs are the greatest
coffee drlDkers in the world, thsic
annual consumption being about
eighteen pounds per head of the
whole population. AmsteId dam has
long been Que of the great cUffee
mdrts of the world and, being ad.
IHitted tree of duty, coffee is very
cheap. Next comes Belgium and
Denmark, III which the consump-
lion per capita Is about half that Of
Holland. Next comes the United
States, iu which the consumption
per capita in 1880 WAS eight aud
right-tenths pounds. The present
consumption of coffee in the United
States may be stated at a little over
one pound per week for each family
IN the milton. In the use OF tea
aud coffee the people of England
aud the United States present q
most remarkable contrast. The an.
nnal consumption of tho people of
England is just about one pound OF
coffee per head, or about one eighth
OF that OF the people of the United
States. Comparing the consump-
lion of tea with that of coffee, it
will be found that, while the people
OF the United States use FIVE pounds
OF cotfre to one of tea, the peOple).
Engla Id use five pounds of tea to
one OF coffee.
There aie fashions in coffee, ash
almost everything. Thurber in his
book on coffee, says:
''At Eden aud Alexandria the
Mocha coffee is carefully picked
over aud assorted in compliance
with the singular fashion 10 trade
which creates demand in Europe
for the larger beans, while the Uni
'el States will have none but tho
8 naller ones. In poiut of fact, the
fareer beans are tbe best, beng full

pearance aud havOr.1

What Becom IS Of the Migrating
Birds.

The flight of stOrks has given trou.
bic to the Germans and the Chinese,
while the disappearance AMI reappear-
ance of the swallows have caused I'M
told trouble everywhere. Learned
bodies, like the French Academy and
the Royal Soc ETY. of London, have
gravely asserted that, in the Fall,
swallows plunge into the mud OF
marshes and mil ponds, become torpid,
and hibernate like frogs and snakes.
| have seen 4 list Of nearly 200 articles,
written all along from tho middle Of
the seventh century down to 1877, for
the purpose of proving or disprovmg
the Information of swallows and other
birds! And Dr. Couos says he can lay
his hand upon papers Of that period,
which discuss the migration of swal-
lows to the moon, the falling of the
little quadrupcis called jennings in
showers from the clouds. aud the
or GIN of brant geese from barnacles
that grew on trees. l.dced, not Il
year ago Twas assured by gentleman
OF more than average intelligence that
this last is undouDtly the correct theory
as ct the origin of the banacle goose!
And it WAS not Il decade ago that l read
in one of the lead ng newspapers of
tbs State, an art Gle of as cur Gus a
character. Its purpose was to explain
the sudden appearance in Fall of the
black snow-brds, and their as sudden
d appearance IN Spring, and the ex-
! pIanat on g ven was that our common
sparrows change color in Fall, becom-
| ing snow-birds, when they rema n I'M
til Spring, when they put on their other
dress and become sparrpws again!
And | find that, among the common
people of the country, there are many

her presence.
When he returned to the parlor tn,
early dusk was falling. A servant came
bringing lights, but he dismissed him
impatiently, and q few moments later
heard the sound Of wheels and the
the sweet voice of his wife in the hall
giving directions.
AT last the silence became unbear-
able, and he seated himself at the
piano. In his old bachelor days mu-
sic had been his passion, but in these
later years of feverish struggle he had
found no time for it. But when his
fingers touched the keys all the dis
pair, the pain and longing in his heart
found voice in the rich chords that
filed the room ...s.s-
He played on, and gradually the
burden was lifted. Music gave him
the comfort she ever gives to those
who truely love her. 1t was no long
wall of dispair, but pecan of thanks
Civ ng for victory gained. ~.

ii hand came down with a sudden
diScord on the keys. 1t was the first
time that Jessie had ever called him
by that name.
He turned and saw her standing there
in her dressing gown of softs cashmere.
The freight was sending long rays
down the stately gloom of the libra
T., and she looked very beautiful
against the rosy background.

poverty. But, oh my child, if | could
save you from its sting! If it were at
the sacrifice of my life. heaven is my
witness | would not STARE it."
She came close to HIM, and laid her
hands in h S.

can give me than wealth can buy. Give

not say it if it is not true. l could 90

open IN heart to this new hope would
kill me-"
Donald, do you think | am made of

kindness and pat ence all these years.
and not lean to love YOU? Oh, so often
| have longcd TO knccl at your feet and
ask your forgiveness. but l believed

'And vou will not regret the loss of

ousy. and can be happy with only my
lovc?"
You forget that papa and l were
poor before | married you. Donald and
was happier then than l have ever
been since learned to hate the things
that cost me SO much, AMI to envy the
poorest woman. happy in her husbands

He turned the sweet tear-wet face to

into her eyes. And then he took her
in his arms.

softly.
And deep in their hearts there was
gladncss that all the treasures of the
